Place cream cheese and caramel in another mixing bowl, whisk with an electrical mixer for approx. 3 minutes until mixture is evenly soft and fluffy. Squeeze the excess water from the gelatin leaves and heat gelatin until melted. Mix gelatin in the cream cheese combination until incorporated. Fold the whipped cream evenly into the mixture.
